Fernando left home five years ago in hopes of finding himself away from the scrutiny of his family's homophobia and transphobia. An unexpected death in the family brings him back to his small hometown. He happens to run into his first love, who is coincidentally visiting family for the holidays. The man doesn't seem to recognize him considering the last time they saw each other Fernando used to go by Isabel. To avoid making things awkward, Fernando tries his best to stay away.

I stare at the flames licking at the walls, pieces of plaster crumbling to the ground like cookie crumbs. Someone stops me. I look up with wide panicked eyes as I beg them to let me go, my only family is in there damnit! I've already lost my family once, I cannot bear to lose them as well. And with everything burned to ash, I realize that sacrifices need to be made. There are people we would give everything for. And still, all I want to do is pretend this isn't happening, pretend my family wasn't taken away simply because they're immigrants, because their skin isn't as white as snow or because they can't speak English well. I want to pretend the flames aren't real as the cries of children fill the air. But then I met him. And I thought he was the same. Arrogant. Powerful. Heartless. And it's hard to admit I was wrong because from the moment we met I should have known he would become my home. ___ Official version of My Home Is With You. INCOMPLETE.

The first bullet startles his mare. Makes the beast rise on its hind legs and throw him off guard. He lands on the ground with a painful thud. The second strikes his friend. The yowling of pain makes his heart clench and look around with wild eyes. "No," he breathes, panic growing, "no, no, no!" He rises and a third bullet is lodged in his shoulder in hopes of stopping him, in slowing him down. It hurts, it stings, and it makes him cry out in pain.
